The Wisdom of the Elders and Tzippy the bird
Ollie, the wise old owl lived in a very thick oak tree, more than three hundred years old, that rose
high into the sky. Nicky, the woodpecker had carved steps into the thick bark and a hole for
Ollie's house, into the trunk of the old oak tree. "Hello,'" calls Tzippy the bird and waited
patiently on the branch until Ollie would notice her. With the twinkling of the stars Ollie made
his appearance.
Ollie, the wise old owl came out, stretched his wings, and with one look at Tzippy, immediately
asks her, "Do you want to fly Tzippy the bird?"
Tzippy, who so much wanted to tell someone about her fears and worries, answered, "My friends
say I simply must learn to fly, but I'm scared. I'll do anything you tell me. I'll fly up to the top
of the sky."
Oliver, the wise old owl replied, and told Tzippy to pay close attention so he can give him an
idea, "and don’t tell anyone anything about what I tell you."

When Tzippy the bird got back to the Eden Pond asked Mickey the monkey very humbly, "please
take me up in the tree."
All the Special Eden Creatures wanted to get some information: "What did Ollie tell you to do?
Deborah the bee asked Tzippy, "Did Ollie teach you how to fly or not?"
Hanna the stork interrupted, "Let's give Tzippy the bird a chance to prove herself." She turned to
Tzippy, "Just do what did he told you!"

Tzippy proclaims, "I intend to carry out his instructions exactly!" Mickey agreed to take her up
the tree. All the Special Creatures stood in awe as Tzippy quickly went up the tree, but very
carefully hopped to the edge of the limb. Everybody stood watching in amazement while
quietly they sang, "Sing of happiness, Special Creatures, the Eden Pond, and the winds upon
the air." They anxiously waited to see what would happen.

Tzippy the bird started to flap her wings and suddenly jumped. Seeing the ground below her, she
noticed she was tumbling to the earth, but she remembered how the Wise Owl instructed her
to overcome her fears, and all of a sudden she realized she was flying. She shouted at the top
of her voice, "I am flying, I can do what I want in the sky!"
The Special Creatures were very happy for her. "You've succeeded, look how you're flying
around; here and there and everywhere."
